The Des Moines Register's All-Iowa football teams have arrived, featuring the best players in each class, from Class 4A down to Eight-Player.

The 2018 Elite Team features the state’s top players, regardless of class. We selected the teams based on season production, Register and Iowa City Press-Citizen staff observations and consultations with more than 200 Iowa high school coaches.

The All-Iowa football teams will be honored June 21, 2019, at the Des Moines Register Sports Awards at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines. All honorees are invited to the event free of charge.

Northern Iowa-bound senior hauled in 71 receptions for 1,221 yards, helping Cedar Falls to 4A state title game. Recorded 22 touchdown receptions, tied for the second most in a single season in Iowa high school football history. Also returned three punts for touchdowns.

South Dakota-bound senior quarterback threw for 1,477 yards and rushed for another 862 while scoring 26 total touchdowns. Orchestrated a Bettendorf offense that ranked sixth in 4A in total yards and averaged 33.9 points per game.

Steady senior presence for 4A’s second-best rushing offense. The 6-1, 280-pound guard blocked with the combination of strength and speed, and he was versatile enough to play on both the left and right sides.

Arguably the state’s best offensive lineman — as a junior. The 6-4, 310-pound tackle possesses the uncanny combination of speed, strength and athleticism that makes him a coveted Division I recruit. Was the primary blocker for one of 3A’s best offenses.

DEFENSE

Defensive line: Landon Green, sr., Iowa City West

Green wasn’t the biggest defensive lineman (5-9, 210 pounds), but he was among the most productive, with 25.5 tackles for loss, including 9.5 sacks.

Disruptive force on Valley’s defensive front. The 6-5, 235-pound defensive end was on every opposing coach’s radar, constantly applying pressure while also racking up seven tackles for loss, routine quarterback hurries and even a 40-yard pick-six.

Leading tackler in 4A, with 123.5 — including 29 combined in the state semifinals (17.5) and finals (11.5). Also had 12.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks. Dowling coach Tom Wilson compared this Iowa recruit to Hawkeyes great Aaron Kampman.

Key defensive playmaker for a Maroon defense that ended the year ranked third in 4A in points allowed. Finished the season with 60 total tackles, 10.5 tackles for loss, two sacks, six interceptions, one pick-six and a fumble recovery.

One of the state’s best athletes. Recorded seven interceptions for a Johnston defense that forced 23 total turnovers. Had three games with multiple interceptions. Also hauled in 571 receiving yards and scored 10 total touchdowns.

Recorded four interceptions, 29 tackles and a fumble recovery for the state’s best defense. Also recorded 2,908 total yards of offense and scored 48 touchdowns in leading Xavier to a second straight 3A state title.

Recorded seven interceptions, which tied for the second-most in 3A. Finished his career with 22 interceptions, good for third all-time. Also recorded 1,547 total yards of offense and scored 15 touchdowns.

SPECIALISTS

Hit all 68 point-after tries and made 14 of 18 field-goal attempts, including a long of 48. Also recorded 35 touchbacks on 94 kickoffs.

Punter: Hunter Dekkers, jr., West Sioux
